Icons: NES

[@dave4shmups]

I really wish that this entire series was available on DVD; I love video game history, and these were great shows!

[@kellychuang8373]

dave4shmups Now that would be something. Even better and 1 up get a streaming option as well too.

[@LazyPirate8]

Tell NBC to do it

[@donkique956]

I bought my NES in 1988. I loved it then, and still love today.

[@WilliamMcCarthyIII]

god damn I miss this channel so bad. it really hurts me that it's not here anymore

[@SEGA128DC]

I have my Nintendo Entertainment System with the Zapper light-gun and Nintendo's Trojan horse, R.O.B put away in a box. I still remember getting the NES for my birthday, back in 1987. It was probably the best birthday present I ever had! Even though I became a Sega fan after the release of the Genesis, there's no doubt the NES place in video game history...

[@SmashBros1235]

Shigeru Miyamoto: This is gonna work Hiroshi. Hiroshi Yamauchi on launching the NES in 1985: Its gonna work, cause I don't know what I'm gonna do if it doesn't. Whatever it takes.

[@Silverspoink]

The '80s, man. Thrash metal, Ronald Reagan, action movies, and Nintendo. Hell of a decade.

[@GiordanDiodato]

Reagan wasn't that great, though.

[@GiordanDiodato]

BTW, I think you mean Glam Metal, not Thrash.

[@JohnGoetzGaming]

Giordan Diodato had a good run of 3 straight presidents before Bush Jr. now we've had 2 straight bad ones.

[@GiordanDiodato]

John Big Boss Obama is still better than Reagan =w=

[@JohnGoetzGaming]

Giordan Diodato Obama is in competition with Buchanan as the worst president of all time. His healthcare bill is detrimental to everyone who had healthcare already. The dept is out of control 10x more than it was with Bush which was already pretty bad. The economy isn't recovering nearly as fast thanks to him.

[@MegamanNG]

Happy 30th Anniversary NES.

[@koolaid28]

i dont remember seeing a lot of playable games from Atari back in the day, except for Space Invaders and Astroids. but i do remember the first time i played super mario bros on nes. mom and dad got it for me for christmas. i might still have it somewhere around the house. should clean the basement LOL

[@Thecolemineexpress.]

Happy 34th birthday nes.

[@AnimeSeigneurMatt]

I don't have a Wii U...yet, I don't have a PS3 either but I do have a 360; either way thanks for the compliment :)

[@derrickpatterson5206]

Rest in peace NES. (Oct 18, 1985 - Aug 23, 1991)

[@digiblader1]

NES didn't die until late 1994.

[@violentremark]

Gregory Pearsoll Actually, late 1995

[@derrickpatterson5206]

Sorry. What I meant was that how long the years of the NES console lasted until the launch of it successor the SNES not discontinued sorry.

[@MegamanNG]

+Derrick Patterson NES games were still made even when the SNES was launched... till around 1993-1994.

[@derrickpatterson5206]

What I meant was that how long the Nes years last when the Snes launched.

[@deathbyzza420]

I was born in 1990. Thankfully I got my brothers hand-me-down NES and it was my system until I got a 64 in 98. Zelda, SM 3 ohh yeah.

[@patmsb1]

Atari blew it!

[@AnimeSeigneurMatt]

I wouldn't know, but if you say it is, I won't pry.

[@BenJabituya]

RIP Hiroshi Yamauchi. I know you're up there with Gunpei Yokoi. GAME OVER.

[@BenJabituya]

Nintendo Entertainment System, the greatest thing I ever grew up on!

[@Launchpad05]

This isn't just a game console, it has 80's Dan's buddy, Rob

[@thegarageband]

That weird noise at 9:23 then door slamming sound at 9:27

[@spongebelt]

The Garage Band the old AOL messenger lol

[@thegarageband]

hwut

[@jillhopkins4842]

Wow, Howard Lincoln sounds like Bill Clinton.

[@dest151]

shit, nintendo busting a lawsuit on game genie was kinda harsh we needed game genie ,nintendo games were freaking hard lol

[@jonniefast]

its bc the genie company stole nintendo schematics (lockout chip) by pretending to be developers ironically the nes top loader lacks the lockoutchip 🙃

[@kevinramirez3134]

What is the name of the song/theme playing at the 14:53 mark?

[@AnimeSeigneurMatt]

I see. Well I still think I was the first to see one of this guy's vids, so I'll let this one pass...but I still gotta ask, what were you doing for two months?

[@mikekane4903]

I didn't get a Robby Robot with my Nes No one did because it wasn't part of the package when it came out!

[@dest151]

video games were never going to die despite the video game crash in the 80"s.... someone would of picked up and saw the dollar signs... now, i do think a new video game crash is going to come.

[@StephenBiggsAdams]

"...a home version of Super Mario Bros..." This implies that they knew that the game hit the arcade first. Try looking that up. Most sources are either ignorant or ambiguous to the fact that the game came out in the arcades prior to the console.

[@kaihedgie1747]

No, it's just terrible wording on the scriptwriter's part. There is an arcade version of Super Mario Bros, but that came out _after_ the console version and it was called Super Mario Bros. VS. There's quite a number or errors littered throughout their episodes, though for me one particularly standout example for me was them saying that Sony got exclusive rights for a console port of MK3

[@jacobieprince9766]

Tank god video game got saved thanks god and Nintendo

[@joshuahiett4304]

Atari made the worst decision ever

[@BlazikenGod]

im hoping i get a Wii U by the middle of june

[@AnimeSeigneurMatt]

Holy Crap! I'm the first to view this?! I can finally cross off one of my desired life achievements: Discover the secret of flight - X Establish world peace - X Be the first to see a KZbin video of a TV show that was popular to me and several others - O

[@Mostege]

10:40 I need name of this track!

[@Ricky-tp2qj]

darude - sandstorm

[@BlazikenGod]

mine is in june and i want a wii u for my bday

[@AnimeSeigneurMatt]

Is that when your birthday is? Mine's in May:)

[@AnimeSeigneurMatt]

Uhh, ok, why'd you take so long to respond?

[@Victoria3232-j7o]

This video is so Full of Crap everyone who ever said games died and The Nes saved it was a lie Gaming never died it just evolved all Nintendo did was Take consoles to a new level but other then people were playing games on PC like todays.

[@AVSteve]

"yeah we're gonna make a new game system and it gonna be all futuristic lookin and it'll come with a robot." Huh futuristic? So why is so bland looking.

[@MrSlashStudios]

How old are you, 12?

[@AVSteve]

MrSlashStudios No....

[@AVSteve]

MrSlashStudios I'm 15 and I have a pretty extensive knowledge about this stuff. More than I should actually

[@MrSlashStudios]

DraculaXHunter101 He probably is. Having "extensive knowledge" and not being able to understand how it was futuristic looking in 1985/86

[@AVSteve]

MrSlashStudios LOOK I know a lot about video games but I don't remember ALL the small stuff

[@chargermaster4054]

Atari will always be the king of video games

[@DrummingMoose]

No. Nintendo forever

[@chargermaster4054]

***** not even. Atari all. The way

[@tylerparker8028]

No they failed.
